I spend most of my free time trying to keep up with two high-energy young boys. I’m an avid sports fan and I have just enough construction knowledge to give me the confidence to start lots of home projects (the key word here being “start”). I love spending my day with kids and working with other passionate disciples of the Lord at a Christ-inspired school.

ECS has been my true home since 1998. My wife and teenage bonus-kids have been a part of the ECS family since the kids were in preschool. Besides working at ECS, I enjoy coaching football and am now the head coach at Bellevue Christian High School. I also enjoy working out, riding motorcycles and ATVs, and absolutely love vacationing in the sun.

I am a lifelong Seattle native, currently living in Sammamish with my wife Sheena. Our two daughters attended ECS from Preschool – 8th grade, and Sheena worked at ECS for 13 years. I enjoy fly fishing (well, any kind of fishing is great!), hiking, classic cars, and keeping up with our three busy Australian shepherds.

The Lord has blessed me with a passion for early childhood education, focusing primarily on preschoolers. My own children are now in their twenties, and my husband and I are enjoying life as empty nesters. Fellowshipping with family and friends, spending time with my granddaughter, and going on long walks are some of my favorite activities.

My husband, two daughters, and I moved from California to Seattle to plant Lighthouse Christian Church in Bellevue. Over the years, God has grown our hearts for our community and the world. I enjoy serving in worship and missions at church and spending time with family and friends.

The best part of my job is meeting wonderful families who deeply love their children and watching new families become a part of the fabric of our school. My prayer is that God would use ECS to draw families closer to Him and to raise up young people who know, love and serve Jesus!

Although I am a native Texan, I spent my school years in West Virginia and Colorado. I completed my student teaching in Seattle and fell in love with the lush green land, water and mountain scenery. Seattle has been my home for over 15 years. I enjoy spending time with my husband, our son, and our Border Collie/Lab mix dog. Our son keeps us busy in the adaptive sports world and our dog leads us to wooded trails and dog parks.Beyond our family, I treasure being in fellowship with my stepdaughter, grand babies, nieces, nephews, friends and neighbors.
I like traveling, hiking, movies, good food, and Chai tea. Vacations to sunny beaches are the best! I have a passion for math, volunteering, philanthropy and event planning, and a heart for Jesus. I look forward to sharing my gifts with ECS.

I have lived most of my life in the Pacific Northwest (with a two-year stint in Dallas, TX, right after marrying my husband Steve). We have three sons: one proudly serving in the Marine Corps, one in middle school, and one in elementary. I love all things Seattle and relish the moments when I can be a tourist in my own town! I am always on the hunt for the next great cup of coffee and find it hard to remain quiet when cheering on the Seahawks! I love supporting others through conversation and prayer and serving with my wonderful church family in Bellevue.

I am an Air Force Brat who lived in 8 towns in 15 years. My family finally laid down roots in Sammamish, Washington in 1991. I attended Redmond High School, where I met my husband. We have 2 kids, who keep us busy with their dancing and soccer activities. I have worked in both public and private schools as a teacher, aide, and substitute for 12 years. My favorite job, by far, was working at a Christian preschool. Being able to work with people who care about students’ academic and spiritual learning is a blessing. When the opportunity arrived to work at ECS, I jumped at the chance to work in a positive Christian environment, again. I am very excited to be working at ECS!
